Uncaria perrottetii,[3] known locally in the Philippines as “sungay kalabaw” (lit. “carabao’s horn”),[4] is a species of liana in the family Rubiaceae.
It was first described in 1834 by Achille Richard as Sabicea perrottetii,[5] and was transferred to the genus, Uncaria, by Elmer Drew Merrill in 1913.[2]
Traditional uses
In the Philippines, it is used by the indigenous Aeta people for treating hematuria, and for combatting puerperal sepsis among new mothers. This has led to a number of preliminary ethnopharmacology studies on poultices derived from the species, to investigate its possible immunostimulatory properties.[6][7]

The Catalogue of Life lists the following as synonyms of Uncaria perrottetii:[3]
- Ourouparia perrottetii (A.Rich.) Baill.
